In June of 2018, street artist Sr. X painted a wall in Penge on Maple Road. Sr. X is noted for his vintage-style artwork that evokes humour and political or social themes. The work on the wall depicts a young boy appearing to look over the fence while Mickey Mouse is emerging from his head and Itchy the mouse from "The Simpsons" show's "The Itchy and Scratcy Show" is holding an ignited dynamite stick behind his back.
The artwork behind the fence is completed with the full face of the boy, but it's really only meant to be seen from the other side of the fence so that the boy appears to be looking over the fence.
